The longest hole in history

We all love a challenge; beating a personal best or doing something outside of our comfort zone. That feeling of having achieved something beyond what we normally would.

In an attempt to raise $100,000 for children’s charities, one man and his caddie (subsequently joined by an adopted dog on their journey) set out to complete the longest hole in history; a par 14,000 carved out of difficult Mongolian terrain, culminating at the 18th green of Mt. Bogd Golf Club.

It took them 82 days to trek the 2011km hole, facing rocky ground, swamps, icy water and desert in the process – click on the link below to view their video. With only 134 balls lost – with one ball lasting 65km! – the man holed a nervy seven-footer to complete the longest hole in history in 20,093 shots, just the mere 6,093 over par. A really special achievement for some fantastic charities.

Following on from their hugely successful M and P iron launches earlier this year, TaylorMade has brought one more iron from each range to market this month. The M CGB iron is 15% more forgiving than the M2 iron, so if you’re new to golf or struggle with distance, these irons should be a perfect match. TaylorMade’s other launch, the P790, is a classic looking iron that fills the gap between the current P and M ranges, meeting the demands of the better player. With six irons in TaylorMade’s line-up it’s more vital than ever to come and see us for a thorough custom fitting so that we can match you up to the perfect set.

Have you ever noticed the difference in looks between various putters that you’ve tried in the past? We’re not just talking about the head shape, but also the sightline each model has to help you aim accurately at address. Take a look at these two putters below…

PING Sigma G Wolverine

PING Vault Anser 2

As you can see above, PING’s range of putters covers not only different shapes of blades and mallets to suit different stroke types, but also a range of alignment designs to suit your different personal preferences when it comes to aiming your putts.

The best way to find your perfect match is to come and try a few models and while you do that we can take a look at your stroke and help narrow down your best options.

As the weather takes a turn for the worst, it’s important to have a few different layering options that can combat the cold, wind and showers. The below tops are just two items we sell in-store that can do just that:

Rain beater

This lightweight adidas prime insulated jacket folds away for easy storage in your bag, but still has a host of technologies to fight off the weather, like fabric that keeps the rain out, but lets moisture escape so you don’t overheat.

Warmth with stretch

We think this adidas hybrid heathered jacket is an ideal layer for the cold, with its contemporary look sitting atop a woven knit fleece fabric that provides warmth with stretch so you can swing powerfully while layered up.
